# Ganesh – very true. Firmware updates are for betterment of features but incase of N73 each firmware came with free bugs which they were not able to fix even in the last firmware update. May be failure on the part of the Nokia phone testers that they were unable to identify the bugs before releasing the firmwares.
And this problem is not with N73 story is same for all major nokia handsets.

This review of mine would give you a clear understanding.

You know nothing about the features that Nokia offers. I hate when people talk like they know everything. First firmware updates is a value added feature. Meaning apart from fixing a few bugs now and then, they also add lot of NEW features! And Image Gallery would be slow in ALL phones if you have 1500 photos (including the phones with 1GHZ processors).
@dev
Just because nokia has 400mhz / 624mhz cpu phones doesn’t mean they are slow. And just because Samsung phones have 1ghz cpu, doesn’t make them twice as fast. Nokia has heavily optimized their code. So the general user experience is not affected much when compared to a 1GHZ phone.

look nice but costly, wait for few days cost will be reduced by Nokia to stay alive in competition with Samsung. They knows now subscribers are moving towards Samsung for best value for money.

dinesh July 28, 2010 at 6:05 pm

this phone is not worth more than rs.9-10,000. nokia should stop overcharging and provide value! its thinks its an iphone, but the truth is it is not! iphone is an experience (product and service) whereas nokia x6 is just the usual!

Come to vashi service centre what a experience by nokia under warranty phones are also termed as liquid damage and they extort money whereas same handset taken to other service centre is repaired free of cost without any questions asked and no stupid liquid damage crap i hate nokia for this….

I too had similar experience once when i took my N73 to the service center. He told me that i have already taken the phone to private service center so the warranty is void. But the fact was that i have never taken it to private service center. Am i mad to take my phone to private service center (and pay him) when i have a phone in warranty? It was a excuse from his side not to work for free.

But the phone i am waiting for is E5. Don’t know when it going to be launched

himanshu singh July 28, 2010 at 12:29 am

The phone is very stylesh and contains almost all the featurs but its expandable memory should be at least 16GB and less than 10thousand

raj July 27, 2010 at 10:39 pm

Its cool but I saw x3 and it had too sharp edges and corners and it seems to be same with x6.
Any news on c6…
I am really waiting for it and hoping that it will fall in my range

dev July 27, 2010 at 9:36 pm

its not a very good price to launch the variant. It should have been around 12k to justify itself.
Nokia had earlier introduced the 32gb version but that was not too successful in the market , hence they released 16gb @ 15k which created quite a fuss and now the 8gb one. But the price difference is way too small ,its success is quite doubted.

And moreover it is not the best phone in the lot, its OS is as worse as anything outdated,slow…… It slowness is primarily due to its low ram around 128mb and a slow 400mhz processor too.

go for a samsung wave a new entrant, 1ghz processor and way too fast OS.

complain nokia customer care

Hate Nokia July 27, 2010 at 7:22 pm

Nokia is been a consistant BUG fixer. Once you take this handset you would keep updating the O/S of your handset just to identify more bugs. Same happened with me when I bought Nokia N73(22 firmware updates in 2 years). Goshh…same me from Nokia.

I am afraid this Nokia phone too because
High price of handset & not so unique features
It would hang while sending sms
Very poor sunlight legibility
Slow image gallery
UI is still immature with somewhat inconsistent user experience
No office document viewer preinstalled.
Nokia would keep reselasing firmware updates whcih would be more bug prone
Sensitive TOUCH Screen after sometime would be NOT SO SENSITIVE

And at this price point the flaws are not easily forgiven.
